OOh well for the DVD ROM, u can close ur eyes and go for SONY brand as they r really good with a great price to performance ratio too.. (as always different ppl will hv different opinion  )
U can go for a SONY DVD ROM, model-DDU-1622 or DDU-1621. Price Rs.1800 +/- Rs.150 (depending on ur location) 
I hv been using SONY DVD ROM (model-DDU 1622) for quite sum time now and the good thing abt them is they dont giv u tray problems in future as in Samsung ones and the tray operation is also smooth as compared to Samsung drives.. COz i even hv Samsung Drives at my PC so know the difference between them really well....
cheers n peace.....

Sony Dvd is good.
LG is good too and comes at a bit lesser price.
Considering the performance my Lg drive copies files faster than sony. i copied 650MB around video file in 1min 58 secs flat.
my samsung drive used to take more than 3 mins to do the same.
but plz make a search before u start. that helps is saving "VALUABLE "space. The same questions and the same answers !.
and y on earth is this is hardware section?????reporting....................

Anyone knows who is the OEM of the Sony DDU-1622?? I think the DDU-1613 was just LiteOn SOHD-167T. But can't find the same here in Mumbai. I'm not getting information of OEM of DDU-1622, which is currently selling in the market. People are saying DDU-1621 was pathetic and it was made by BTC. But plz let me know some more about DDU-1622.

what are u going to do with this DVD drive ? I have seen many ppl around who always wanna buy the best, but if u r not gonna use if for extremes, anything will do.
I own a Damn samsung Drive, reason : when i purchased, one, it was the only black drive available in the market.. Quiet old now, not in warrenty, works , but not so happy about it.. it stops on scratches, drive tray comes out when not requested (of it's own!) , when requeste it will sit comfortably inside, will take out spinning cd's out and kinda weired things...still using it..well...I have a DVD rw also, so using this drive sparingly for watching movies, playing digit dvd's nd kinda stuff...
SAMSUNG is a DAMN brand man...all these years, the same problems keep on repeating , and nobody cares to rectify them...although, their warrenty is good.
